Is poor or being poor better than rich and being rich? It might be. People assume that being rich is the best thing in the world. That's actually not true. Rich and richest people in the world are the most stressed out and unhappiest people ever. There is no happiness behind the way to riches. It's just too much stuff to manage every day that it becomes overwhelming. In fact, you don't need all the stuff to be happy or have a great life. You just need to get used to being poor and live a minimalist life. You'll realize living minimally gives the best joy and fulfillment out of life. Nobody needs that much stuff to live their best life =)
Stop being brainwashed by the media that imposes the idea of all the people that look like they accomplished something by getting rich. You can still accomplish a lot without getting rich. Let's say you'll never be rich because it's nearly impossible. There is no need for you to feel down about this weird desire. You must have a real purpose in life and go after it. Being rich isn't a purpose. Even rich people actually followed their passion to get there. Nobody ever worked hardest to get richest. That's not how it works. Matter fact being poor is superior to being wealthy. People who are frugal or prefer a life with less, are the realest people. Just breathe this in.
Let me give you an example. You already had a car that rides, you only paid insurance and gas for it. You wanted a better car that's newer, with more features, looks better, with good engine etc. You went to the dealership and picked the car you liked, got it. It was $500 a month added payment for 5 years out of your income plus your insurance went up. You had to do 2K down payment in advance. Are you happier now or richer? The car drives the same, it doesn't have that much features like it was promised. You ended up paying for it for 5 years, even your insurance went up. You could still go everywhere if you kept your older car, it was fine. You assumed something or a car was going to make you or your life better then you realized it wasn't true. Life isn't about all the things you have, you never need most of them...
Humans are spiritual beings, your spirit wants to learn, grow, experience life, not the useless products that someone or a company made. The less things you have, you'll understand that having all the things or being well-off was the worst thing ever. Be poor, be minimalist, be happy, only invest in experiences, eat less, live more, rest more, breathe in the freedom you have. People who quit their high paying jobs to pursue minimalist lives acknowledged having the best moments after.
